Philip started keeping bees this summer out at our friend Eli and Dawn's farm.
It has provided for our little family much learning, entertainment and (a little) labor since then. We find bees to be very fascinating around here. . . .They have special dances to communicate with one another, for instance. 
Philip also took a small class of homeschoolers (i.e. nieces and nephews) to teach about the wonders of bees and honey. He also read very passionately from Virgil, of course.
Philip built these hives himself (with the help of a friend). We are very proud of our very own gentleman-farmer.
